Depending upon your view, the gamer has changed over the years. Back in ~my~ day, I thought nothing of sitting in front of a computer, "camping" mobs to get a new glitter piece. But today's (younger) gamer wants instant gratification and they want it _now_.
Build a game to cater to those that can plunk down long stretches of time and it will bomb. Build a game that is twitchy and sprinkles rewards left, right, and center the moment you log into it, and it will fade it obscurity when the next "big" game is released.
